This is not to ask but to answer to your question on the painting you posted here (http://defterisk.tumblr.com/post/3584578349/amare-habeo-anne-louis-girodet-de-roucy). That is just one of the four allegories of the seasons painted by Girodet for the platinum cabinet in Casa del Labrador, near the royal palace of Aranjuez in Spain. The cabinet itself was designed for Charles IV of Spain by Percier and Fontaine (see here: http://digitalgallery.nypl.org/nypldigital/dgkeysearchdetail.cfm?trg=1&strucID=172672&imageID=102114&total=75&num=60&parent_id=169643&word=&s=&notword=&d=&c=&f=&k=0&sScope=&sLevel=&sLabel=&lword=&lfield=&imgs=20&pos=64&snum=&e=w).
